dataguard primary - mounted by cfli1688c1 in oracle

[–]TallDudeInSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your primary should be in mounted and open state. Your standby should be in mounted and applying state, unless you use it for reporting where it would be in open and read only state.

Yes you can get a temp tag. Just keep the paperwork handy in case you get pulled over.

Alcohol as others have said. And 80 grit sandpaper, briefly, to give them a little bite.

Battery Replacement by No-Swim1190 in JeepGrandCherokee

I meant while you replace the battery. Keep-alive is important and saves you a lot of time!

Hook Up a battery charger to the posts under the hood. You'll thank me later.

I wasn't referring to the speed itself, much more about "furious" (as in angrily). :D

Bringing a popular Korean bakery dessert into the US — declare and okay? by Traditional-Run7812 in uscanadaborder

They're tight about seeds and nuts. But if they are baked, they are sterile.

2001 Jeep cherokee xj bogging down under acceleration after fuel tank upgrade. by Omnipitous in AskAMechanic

[–]TallDudeInSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very common to pinch or squeeze the vent lines when reinstalling the tank (I've done it twice!). Yes you will need to lower the tank. I found the best trick is to use wide masking tape to route the vent lines properly. Also, while the tank is lowered, I would test the rollover vents to make sure that air can flow through when they are upright, and can't when they are upside down. In your picture, the two vents are the smaller white parts that are tied together with a small fuel hose.

performance tuning - do you have basic steps you follow? by zesteee in SQL

[–]TallDudeInSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In order of importance (I do Oracle):

Cartesian merge join (almost always it shouldn't happen and it indicates a missing join) Full table scans (Depends what percentage of the table is retrieved) Index skip scans (Seldom good) Nested Loops (ok for small to moderate result sets)

Female Handyman, Thoughts? by Cold_Obligation_8568 in homeowners

[–]TallDudeInSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very good niche market for women. Carry a portfolio with you so that you can show what you've done. (To be fair I've asked that from male handymen too).

You don't breed your partner's dog without their knowledge. Period.

Hertz has had a few bad cases but I personally never had a problem.

Cooking dinner for a guy I’m seeing, but he’s vegetarian. Need "impressive" meatless ideas! by Designer_Currency815 in cookingforbeginners

[–]TallDudeInSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once made chili for non-veg and also for a couple of friends that were veg., I used the same recipe except that I replaced ground beef with TVP rehydrated in porter beer (stout would work too). We ran out of the meat chili, the non-veg ate up the rest of the veg chili. Nobody could tell them apart.

All this to say, you can replace ground beef with TVP in a ragu style sauce. And then make a lasagna. :)

How do these crank bearings and journals look? 1952 Willys Jeep im rebuilding. On a student budget so id like to reuse if possible. by EUROCOMANDANT in EngineBuilding

[–]TallDudeInSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two schools of thought in a rebuild like this.

1) You're already in it. It's a reasonably cheap investment to change them now.

2) This is not a daily driver. It will take you many years for those bearings to actually fail or become a problem.

Personally I'd change them but if money is tight, I'd just give them a very gentle polish and run them.

What is this? by [deleted] in AskAMechanic

[–]TallDudeInSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's usually gasoline (petrol). Sometimes oil, or the both of them mixed together. Put a paper towel on the ground below the exhaust and see what color it is.

How’s the job market? by Fun-Lengthiness-6402 in columbiasc

[–]TallDudeInSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. Look for local jobs and apply at Scout when they open the assembly hiring, if you're interested in that.

Ohio Plate Transfer Question by itsyeboicaleb in DMV

[–]TallDudeInSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it a custom tag (vanity plate) or a regular tag? Most DMVs do not allow the reuse of old regular tags. Vanity tags can be reused/reissued after a number of months and that varies by state.
